Thomas Kuslits

Banker. Leader. Friend. Tom Kuslits is a commercial banker that wears many hats—and he does it all very well. From overseeing international and municipal banking to capital market products and services, Kuslits has earned a solid reputation over the past 30 years throughout the Michigan market.

Since he began at Flagstar in 2011, Kuslits' focus has been on solidifying the bank’s position in the commercial arena. “It’s exciting to have the challenge of creating and building something new rather than just sustain it,” says Kuslits.

To continue with that effort, Kuslits has formed a team of 30-plus professionals dedicated to everything from treasury management and product development to strategic alliance. “Sure, this business is about financial analytics, but it’s also about the relationships you build,” says Kuslits. “For my team, that means being responsive and consistent.”
